Hi,

We have an application that is using the Xerces-J 1.4.4 jar file to do its parsing. Most everything is fine, except that its not properly handling some encoded characters (not changing a & string to & and causing some strange data problems along the way as an example).

I've been looking at the Xerces-J 2.9.0 version which I'd like to use, but I don't want to rework the entire application to utilize this so I was trying to create the single xerces.jar file from this versions source code so I can drop that into our application (reading the documentation this seems possible for backward compatibility).

I'm having a lot of trouble with this as it continually tells me that it can't find certain files, even though I can see those files in the directory.

I've downloaded the binaries, the source, and the tools. I unpacked the zip files into separate directories and then combined them all together into a single xerces-2_9_0 directory. I added that to my classpath. I'm trying to use the "ant build deprecated jar" command as the documentation indicates, but this is where I start running into problems with files not found, etc... .

Does anyone have any experience doing this? Any hints as to what I am missing? I've been reading the through the install documentation for this and as far as I can tell I'm following the directions, but they are a little thin so I may be missing something.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
steve
